There was NO market for Nick Young. I can't remember a single rumor about "Team X" is looking to sign Nick Young. Lakers bought him back for entertainment value...too bad he's a bum.

Yea market value for nick young was china 
- 37,492
- 12,931
Dave Mcmenamin wrote the Hawks, and a few other teams looked at him.
And Jodie Meeks got 3 year - $19mil... Marvin Williams 2 year - $14mil .... Yet you can't believe Nick Young didn't get a 4 year - $21.5mil offer anywhere else.
May be a year more than anyone wanted, myself included, but it certainly was at the very worst what his market value was around the league.

What was Mitch smoking?
"When Nick became a free agent in June, I expressed hope that we would be able to bring him back on a contract that was in the best interest of both the Lakers and himself, and I am proud to say we were able to do so," Kupchak said in a statement. "Nick was a bright spot for us last season, and we are happy to retain such a skilled player who is committed to being a part of what we are building as a franchise."

As long as Swaggy shoots threes at a good rate (this year he's been a hair above league average) he'll be worth his deal.

Dude, we dont want you to make a thread for it.
All youre going to do is attract a bunch of random lurkers who we dont even know to join the summit.
This is a private thing between us Laker fans and maybe a few other regulars from S&T.
We're not tryna get 80 people who we dont even know to show up and **** up the games, or worse yet just show up to troll.

Would work better if we created a "Group Me" thread, or ever whatsapp.

IF we get KAT, I wouldn't dare trade him for Cousins.

Ummmm, Randle, KAT, and Cousins are all UK guys.
Saying I would condone a Cousins/Randle trade because I just want a UK guy makes zero sense. Keeping Randle would also mean having a Kentucky guy.
And as enticing as it sounds, Lakers first. I want a productive guy. I'm not all for the Rondo possibilities. We had Meeks, and I never really liked that. Some days, yeah. But overall? Nah.
But if we could land Wall, Cousins, Eyebrows, keep Randle, and land KAT...
... smiles all around from this guy.

He wasn't saying it as a likely scenario,
He's saying how he wants all Kentucky guys.. Except Rondo & Meeks

I know all 3 are from there I just spaced out my next thought poorly, so I was just saying I wouldn't want to trade KAT or Okafor or even Russell for cousins. I would rather have a cost controlled asset then a max player who hasn't done much besides great stats. (sounds like Kevin Love)
If its Winslow or mudiay I'd probably bite and trade.

Obviously I'm not in NBA locker rooms, but it would be interesting to see if management could persuade free agents to sign onto a team led by Kobe and Boogie.
